In 2008, the program reported 1,321 sites disrupted and 94,700 plants eradicated statewide.

The downward trend can be attributed in part to a revised state law that took effect on July 1, 2008. The law makes it easier to charge indoor marijuana growers with trafficking, the program said in its annual report.

Statewide, there were far more seizures from indoor grow sites (561) than outdoor (210.) In Marion, all eight sites were indoor.

Miami-Dade County (184) led the state in indoor grow sites busted, while Putnam County (19) had the most outdoor sites.
